Chapter 4 You Are Smart
“Besides looking like Cora, you know how to pleasure me in bed.” Zachariah did not hide his lust for Ophelia.
Ophelia shook her head as she found it quite ridiculous, “You say you love her, but you praise me calmly. Well, I guess one can’t
believe a lover’s honeyed words.”
“You are my wife.”
Ophelia forced a smile and said, “Yes, I am the wife you’ve bought with money. It is reasonable for me to fulfil my duty and meet
your physical needs, but sometimes your words are cruel. Are you worried that I might be hurt as your wife?”
“You won't, because you are smart. You know if you lose me, you will lose your source of income. You can't bear losing the glory
and wealth you have acquired.”
Ophelia laughed. After drinking some wine, her cheeks turned a little red, which made her appear more charming.
“You know me well. You know I’m a gold digger, no wonder we fit each other perfectly in bed. Come on! Let’s toast for a
wonderful night!”
Ophelia held the goblet and said naturally with grace.
Later, Ophelia lay naked on Zachariah’s chest after making love. She had to admit that although there was no love between
them, they matched perfect in bed. She even had an illusion that Zachariah was actually in love with her.
Then, Ophelia drew circles on Zachariah's chest seductively, and said in an extremely sweet tone, “You are an outstanding man.
It's no wonder that so many women fall for you.”
Zachariah grabbed her restless hand and said, “As long as you are not one of them, I am fine.”
Ophelia smiled sweetly, looking at Zachariah, and said, “Why are you so afraid of me pestering you?”
Zachariah said coldly, “I don't like women who cry and pester.”
Ophelia smiled in a seductive manner, supported herself on her elbow, and pressed her body against his, her amorous eyes
sparkling with engaging charm.
“You are so sober, are you afraid that I will be hurt by your heartless remarks?”
Zachariah gazed closely at Ophelia, who could cast spells over men like a fairy, before answering her confidently, “You won't be.”
Ophelia smiled and said sweetly, “That is true. What I love is your money. Money always makes me feel securer than men.”
There was an obvious change in Zachariah’s expression before he replied, “I must say, you surely know how to show your
money-oriented attitude better than any other woman.”
Upon hearing the words, the smile on Ophelia's face faded, and she was overwhelmed by sheer bitterness once again.
Ophelia suddenly lost the energy to seduce Zachariah, and lay on the bed quietly.
Zachariah was caught off guard, and said, “What's the matter with you?”
Instead answering his question, Ophelia kept her eyes closed.
Zachariah turned sideways to face her, supporting his head with his hands, and said, “Are we good? You looked fine just now.”
With her eyes closed, Ophelia suddenly said, “If I say I am in love with you, do you believe it?”
Zachariah was stunned for a moment, and then said with a cold expression, “I’ve already told you four years ago. You must not
fall in love with me, not matter what. The relationship between us is nothing more than that between an employer and an
employee.”
